Three detentions following a burglary in Hamburg-Eißendorf.

In a shocking incident that took place on August 30, 2025, at 8:30 AM in Hamburg-Eißendorf's Dahlengrund, an 80-year-old senior was viciously attacked in his own apartment. The senior was injured in the face and upper body during the attack and was taken to a hospital for further treatment.

The attackers, three German citizens aged 24, 24, and 44, were apprehended by the police shortly after the incident. The Department for Capital Offenses of the Public Prosecutor's Office is involved in the investigations, and suspicion of attempted homicide due to severe violence during the crime has been raised against the three men.

According to the initial investigation, the attackers demanded cash from the senior and searched his apartment. A VW van used by the trio, as well as cash and jewelry found inside, were secured as evidence. The senior's loud cries for help caused the attackers to flee, and his caregiver arrived shortly after to notify the police and emergency services.

The initial investigation was led by the Homicide Squad (LKA 26), but was later taken over by the Robbery Squad of the Harburg region (LKA 184). The Homicide Commission of the State Criminal Police Office (LKA 41) is now conducting further investigations.
